Hey,

I was wondering if someone were able to help me with this. I see a lot of people have posted about Window Capture giving a "black screen". But that's not quite my problem here.

When I add a Window Capture (to any window), it takes what it currently sees and freezes it. Meaning if that image updates, it will remain the same on OBS. If i hover my cursor over it, it will show the cursor move on the layer in OBS, but the image itself will not change.

I'm running windows 8.1, just saying :p
Thanks a lot in advance, and i'm very sorry if there is already a post that i havn't seen about this, but i have tried to search quite a lot for this :p

What window are you trying to capture? you should always try game capture first. If that doesn't work, then window capture.

Yea. I use game capture for all the applications I can use it on. But for example if I want to add my VoIP group with who's talking and etc, then it won't do with the game capture :p

Right now I can try any window and it won't work. Games, VoIP client, Chrome, Firefox and etc.

This might be complicated with your SLI setup

Well. I don't really see how that would cause the problem. Even keeping everything at one monitor, and/or discconecting my other monitors makes no difference to the outcome. I havn't tried removing the grapichs card, but tried not using it at all.

OBS has issues with SLI, can you disable SLI. Second, I would put all three monitors on the same display so there is no question about which GPU is carrying the scene you are picking.

OBS needs to select a single GPU in the video tab.

I tried both disabling it all, and removing the second grapichs card entinerely. No difference sadly. But thanks for the tip though :p
